Nicole O - Ashland, WI 54806 (24.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $50.50/hr.
I have taught Spanish at the middle and high school level for six years. Since I started teaching in the district where I currently work, the Spanish program has flourished, and requests for my classes exceed the space we have available for students. Students want to take my class because of my highly effective teaching style, which I described previously. I also have a year of experience tutoring various subjects a tthe middle and high school level. I have helped kids in Math, Science, English, and REading. As a teacher, I do my best to create fun lessons that are both challenging and thought-provoking. I like for my students to learn to use the language without really even trying, so I create activities in which they use the vocabulary and grammar that we have just studied in little bits. In this way, they are able to master each topic with ease and feel pround of themselves for

Paul B - Duluth, MN 55804 (46.4 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
More than 30 years of writing and editing have taught me that effective written communication begins long before the first word. It begins with accurate and detailed perception, whether of an event or one’s own thoughts. This perception then is related with precision, which is created using the tools of semantics, syntax, punctuation and grammar. My work as a daily newspaper editor and as senior writer in corporate public affairs and marketing departments have provided the opportunity to mentor countless young writers in this approach. Sharing what I’ve learned about writing has been the most gratifying aspect of my work over all these years. I’ve learned that lecturing or directing is an ineffective, if not counterproductive, method of teaching. Rather, I prefer to help the student reach the same conclusions I have through questioning him or her, first about perceptions and then about w

Kelsey H - Duluth, MN 55806 (47.4 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I tend to teach things in a visual way. Drawing pictures, diagrams and using visual aides are the best ways I have witnessed to teach kids. I also think a structured reward system is HUGE in motivating kids to succeed. You need to find out what motivates your kid (money, toys, etc) and set up a system where he/she can earn these rewards through academic success. I am currently a medical student at the University of Minnesota Medical School Duluth. Before I started medical school I worked as a tutor for six years with two teenage boys with autism. Under the six years of my tutoring, both of these "disabled" kids were completely mainstreamed and even taking some AP and challenge classes. I believe that any kid can learn if they are taught in a way that is fun and structured. I tutored these kids in Math, Science, Social Studies and English. I also spent a semester as a Teaching Assistant i
